From Molecular Mechanics to Nanocomposites: Engineering Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) for High-performance Coating ApplicationsBy Neha Sahu, Rizwan Arif
Abstract: Polytetrafluoroethylene (PTFE) exhibits remarkable chemical inertness, hydrophobicity, antifriction, self-lubrication, and high-temperature resilience, making it an ideal polymer for various industrial applications, including coatings for medical implants, machinery parts, and corrosion-resistant structures. This study presents a comprehensive analysis of PTFE’s structural properties, focusing on helix reversals within its helical carbon-fluorine chains and their effects on mechanical behavior. The phase transitions of PTFE at temperatures from ambient to high (198°C and above) …
